Looking for highly skilled Science Teachers (Bio, Chem & Physics) to provide online/remote live academic support to K-12 students based in the United States.
About the Role
This is not a traditional classroom teaching role. Teachers provide short-form, live academic assistance to students who join an online support platform when they get stuck on a science concept, theory, experiment, calculation, or assignment question. Sessions are typically around 10 minutes long and focus on direct, snapshot-style support.
Students may require assistance with:
- Biological Sciences
- Chemistry
- Physical Sciences
- AP-level and advanced science subjects
- Homework clarification and scientific problem-solving
If a student requires extensive intervention or ongoing academic support, they are referred back to their primary educator.
Requirements
Applicants must have:
- A completed tertiary qualification in:
- BSc. in Biological Sciences/Chemistry/Physical Sciences, OR
- B.Ed FET with Science as a core module/major
- Related degree
- Exceptionally strong knowledge across multiple disciplines and levels
- The ability to think quickly and explain concepts clearly in real time
- Strong verbal communication skills
Technical Requirements
- Fibre internet connection (minimum 25 Mbps upload/download)
- LAN-connected setup
- i5 quad-core PC/laptop capable of running teaching software
- UPS/back-up power solution
- Noise-cancelling headset
- Quiet, professional working environment
Working Hours
- South African time 15:00 – 00:00 SAST
- Shift can be broken in half, e.g., 15:00-18:00 and 18:00-00:00
Compensation
- Approximate monthly earning potential: R22 000
If you are passionate about science and enjoy helping students overcome learning obstacles in real time, we would love to hear from you.
